Reactions of cyclobutenones with nucleophilic reagents via vinylketen intermediates [PDF]
While strong nucleophiles add to the endocyclic double bond of cyclobutenones to yield cyclobutanones, weaker nucleophiles (e.g. alcohols, aniline) interact with the vinylketens which are thermally or photochemically generated from cyclobutenones; the ...

Synthesis of functionalized tryptamines by Brønsted acid catalysed cascade reactions [PDF]
An original synthetic protocol has been developed for the preparation of highly functionalized tryptamines from 2-hydroxycyclobutanone and secondary arylamines via a solvent-free Brønsted acid catalysed two-step reaction ...

Modular access to substituted azocanes via a rhodium-catalyzed cycloaddition-fragmentation strategy [PDF]
A short entry to substituted azocanes by a Rh-catalyzed cycloaddition–fragmentation process is described. Specifically, exposure of diverse N-cyclopropylacrylamides to phosphine-ligated cationic Rh(I) catalyst systems under a CO atmosphere enables the ...

Cyclobutanone Inhibitor of Cobalt-Functionalized Metallo-γ-Lactonase AiiA with Cyclobutanone Ring Opening in the Active Site [PDF]
An α-amido cyclobutanone possessing a C10 hydrocarbon tail was designed as a potential transition-state mimetic for the quorum-quenching metallo-γ-lactonase autoinducer inactivator A (AiiA) with the support of in-house modeling techniques and found to be
